Lao Zhiming explained to everyone the current development of the M&A market: First, with the economic downturn, the number of M&A transactions for development is also decreasing; second, at the policy level, due to the influence of policies, M&A transactions are more difficult to occur; Third, for industry integrators, the economic downturn may be a good opportunity for merger integration. Xu Deqiang pointed out that the data of strategic acquisitions, VC/PE and overseas mergers and acquisitions are all declining, mainly due to the continuous increase in the difficulty of raising funds for RMB funds; Mergers and acquisitions worth more than 100 million yuan have also continued to decline. However, the investment of small and medium-sized enterprises in many subdivided industries in Europe and the United States is increasing. The more difficult the period of capital winter, the more the period of rapid expansion at low cost. Chen Song pointed out that if a listed company wants to expand in scale through mergers and acquisitions, it must combine it with its own strategy; secondly, if a company hopes to break through in the development of a company, talents are the most important factor.

Finally, several guests conducted in-depth discussions on the types of mergers and acquisitions, opportunities and challenges of mergers and acquisitions. Since 2018, the Chinese economy has faced a series of new challenges. However, from the perspective of the development of the global capital market, the downturn in market conditions and asset prices has provided rare investment and merger opportunities for real leading companies and value investors, and the merger and acquisition market will also be driven by The original high valuation, high premium, and high VAM model has entered a new era that focuses on industrial synergy, industrial integration and upgrading. It can be said that mergers and acquisitions will become a hot spot in China's capital market in the next 3 to 5 years.
